Reservations for all performances are available online at dmplayhouse.com or by calling The Playhouse ticket office at 515-277-6261.

Sharon (Laura Sparks), in her mid-fifties, is recently divorced and needs a roommate to share her Iowa home. Robyn (Jodi Jinks), also in her mid-fifties, needs a place to hide and a chance to start over. But as Sharon begins to uncover Robyn's secrets, they encourage her own deep-seated desire to transform her life completely. The Roommate is a dark comedy about what it takes to re-route your life - and what happens when the wheels come off. Remaining shows are 7:00 PM, Wednesdays-Sundays, through Aug. 16.

Also this summer at Live Theatre Drive-In: Miss Electricity, 10:00 AM, Saturdays, Aug. 8 & 15.
